Use Safe Surfer via secure DNS on Google Chrome
Safe Surfer supports filtering via secure DNS on mobile and desktop Google Chrome browsers. This is a good option for individuals who need an easy alternative solution to use Safe Surfer without having to change the DNS servers on your device.
To get started, you will need to generate a custom link for Google Chrome to use. Click this link to go to the Safe Surfer dashboard and generate a new Chrome "device" listing. Copy the DoH link we generated for you. This will be the link you will paste into the Provider URL text box in Google Chrome later on.

These links point Google Chrome to our servers. Our servers know the account associated with this link. This enables us to apply filtering and other custom filter settings for you.
If you do not have Google Chrome installed, you can download it here:
